The second monthly recital and lecture
Of the Conservatory was given in the
Chorus Chapel last Tuesday evening.
The program consisted of several mum.
bers given by students and members Of
The faculty, followed by lecture by
Mrs. M. Mcclellan Brown, of Cincinnati,
On the subject Of "Genesis Of Art" The
lecture was a masterpiece of thought,
couched in the choicest language with q
clear, deliberate and distinct delivery.
Mrs. Brown is cultured lady and fine
and what she has to say is
always worth attention and thought.
The recitals were all good and reflected
credit on the institution. The reading
Of Miss Fannie McKeehan was especi.
tally pleasing. Miss McKeehsn is a
of the elocution class, under
the instruction of Prof. Addams, and
the short time she has been
receiving instruction she surely has made
rapid progress in this field of study.

"Some Important Truths Made Clear
to the Eye" was the subject upon which
Mr.. Robt. 7. Bonsell, of Cincinnati, de.
livered q very entertaining and instruct
i've lecture last Thursday evening at the
College. Mr.. Bonsell's illustrations
were very striking and impressive. Fur
instance, in prefacing that part of his
lecture pretaining to the worship Of
money, he placed silver dollar on the
table before him and for q moment
bowed in the attitude of worship before
it, thus giving in pantomine q. it were
one important truth" Of to-day. Pro-
family and other evils were illustrated in
the same simple and striking manner.
HIS lecture was out of the line of the
ordinary and was highly enjoyed by all
present. He has an excellent delivery
and is in all pleasing speaker. Tie
interest in this course seems to be grow.
ing and larger attendance is antici.
pated for the remaining course. The
next lecture will be ON the evening Of
the 2lst inst, and will be delivered by
Rev. A. B. Leonard, ON the subject 1.-THE
Twain One"
There are two kinds of poor people in
every town, and HilIsboro is no except
ion to the rule. One class is the honest
poor who do what they can to support
themselves aid their families, and the
other class is the dishonest poor, a low,
disreputable class who are too lazy and
indolent to be anything else than poor,
who would rather starve or freeze than
make an effort to provide the comforts
of life. The former class deserve the
sympathy and help of all good citizens
and should be given such work to dc
that will enable them to live. The latter
deserve to suffer the inconvenience and
misery which they could but do not try
to avert. There are men Of family in
Hillsboro who are perfectly compsten,
to support their families and who are
endowed with q reasonable amount o.
intelligence who depend wholly ON ths
county to carry themselves and families
through the winter. One man was said
y few winters ago to have been living of
the county and At the same time to have
had over five hundred dollars ready
cash. Such men never pay their bills
and from the fact that they can 20 sue
cessfully pretend poverty shows ar
average or rather above the average o
intelligence. Let such imposters ans
frauds bs exposed and be made to "roo
or die" We believe in helping tn
honest poor who make an effort to sup
port themselves, but from sickness o
misfortune are rendered dependent; bu
heartily disapprovs of INDUCING thos
lasy, worthless, thieving loafen tina
make poverty clout for charitable aid

The appearance OF Nine. Julie Rive

OF the season. When We remember ths
